vlc for windowsVLC supports and releases various skins for the media player. You can download and integrate it with installed VLC player to give it an un-common look. You can either select your desired skins from Skins here. You can even download All of the skins in .zip format.

How to use these skins.

VLC needs to be restarted to change to skins mode.

  6. The personal computer data source is a main space for storage service which keeps all the information, configurations and options for your program inside. Because of this database's significance, many Microsoft windows media player systems actually end up saving many parts of it in the wrong way - major your program to run much more slowly and with a lot of mistakes.
